Chapter 930: 925. The Huang Lin Couple Makes a Ruthless Decision (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)

~7 min read 1,345 words

Zhang Ran had long planned for Huang Lin to come over this time; to smoothly merge these group companies into the holding company, he had to appease people like Huang Lin.

And it was impossible for Zhang Ran to make too many concessions just to appease them; that would not be Zhang Ran.

Therefore, Zhang Ran struck first to gain the initiative. Now that these few issues had been raised, coupled with the threat of Huali Electric, Huang Lin had no choice but to comply obediently.

Of course, Huang Lin actually had no intention of resisting in his heart; after all, compared to others, he had no solid ground to stand on here.

However, these were just Huang Lin's thoughts, while Zhang Ran had to ensure that the merger went off without a hitch.

If the integration could not be completed this time, there would be no such opportunity in the next few years, and it might even cost a greater price to carry out the integration in the future.

So Zhang Ran wanted this integration to succeed in one go; it could not be dragged out.

Moreover, he still had to continue dealing with the Rhode Family, which also required the use of local strength.

Integrating these group companies would also allow him to better utilize the power of these groups.

Zhang Ran did not say anything more about this aspect afterward, but instead chatted with Huang Lin about everyday matters.

Chatting about these things, Huang Lin finally relaxed, and before he knew it, they had talked until ten o'clock.

"Alright, you should head back first; you still have to go to work tomorrow morning," Zhang Ran said with a smile as he looked at the somewhat exhausted Huang Lin.

Huang Lin nodded and said, "Then I will head back first. By the way, do you want to go to the company tomorrow?"

"I will go directly there; you don't need to come pick me up. I will go straight to your office when the time comes," Zhang Ran said.

After exchanging a few more words, Huang Lin and his wife left Zhang Ran's Siheyuan.

After returning home, although Huang Lin felt some fatigue, he still forced himself to stay alert and said, "You go to Huali Electric tomorrow, find them, and tell them about the situation. Don't let it end up becoming a joke."

Cheng Mei said, "I know, but they probably won't be very convinced, sigh."

Thinking of these relatives and friends of theirs, Cheng Mei also felt a headache. It was only right that they wanted to give back to their family now that they had become successful.

Moreover, at the beginning of their venture, these relatives and friends of the family had all put in a great deal of effort.

Many people had gone bankrupt back then to help them, although their business had already shown some improvement at that time.

But there was no doubt that these people had been a huge help, especially when they had been involved in more than one brawl while competing for the market back then.

Some relatives and friends had even gone to prison because of it. Huang Lin and his wife kept all of this in their hearts, which was why they had acquired Huali Electric to give back to their relatives.

There had been no issues before, but now it had become a burden.

"You must explain it to them clearly. Huamei is no longer under our control now. If they don't know what's good for them, I won't be able to protect them, and I might not even be able to protect myself," Huang Lin said coldly.

He had given enough over these many years; if they were still insatiably greedy at this point, then there was nothing Huang Lin could do.

After saying this, Huang Lin's tone softened slightly: "But actually, this is also an opportunity. Huali Electric may lack competitiveness now, but the overall direction of development is correct. And Mr. Zhang also said that if results are achieved here,

then he will definitely provide strong support in the future, and the profits they can obtain will certainly be more than what they have now."

"But I'm afraid they don't have the ability and are unwilling to relinquish power," Cheng Mei said with a bitter smile.

This was what she was worried about.

The reason why Huali Electric was in such a terrible state now was largely due to management issues.

The senior executives were basically all their relatives, and Cheng Mei knew exactly how much capability they had.

They had provided a clear direction for development, even allocating tens of millions annually for research and development, and all of Huamei's sales channels were prioritizing their products.

For it to still be in such a half-dead state now, there must be a major problem.

Cheng Mei had known where the problem lay before, but she hadn't taken it to heart; they could afford to lose that little bit of money.

And it was going into their own pockets anyway, so it was no big deal.

But things were different now; if Zhang Ran were truly angered, these people would likely not have a good ending.

They had hired some professional Managers in the past, but it had been of no use. These people would not relinquish power; not only did they refuse to cooperate, but they also caused trouble.

They believed it was a power grab, and in the end, Cheng Mei and the others gave up.

Hearing this, Huang Lin also felt a headache, but what had to be said still had to be said: "Just go and tell them directly. If they are still unwilling to relinquish power, then sell the shares now. I believe Mr. Zhang will come up with the money to buy them.

This is good for everyone. Don't let Mr. Zhang end up sending them to the police station; that won't be good for anyone."

Huang Lin was clear about Zhang Ran's ruthlessness; if these people were truly stubborn, they would definitely not have a good outcome in the end.

"Sigh, that's the only way. I will arrange for them to take some leisurely positions and give up the important ones," Cheng Mei said.

This was the only way; if these people were allowed to continue holding these important positions, then let alone developing the company, it would be a good thing if they could just keep it from going bankrupt without the help of the Headquarters.

"Hmm, that's it. You tell them to let Xiao Feng and the others join the company too. They should have some level of competence after all these years; let's see what their level is.

If Xiao Feng and the others are capable, I will arrange for them to take over the company's authority, but if they aren't either, then I really can't help it," Huang Lin said.

Xiao Feng and his peers were of the generation of Huang Xunceng; compared to those people, their education and vision were much better than the previous generation.

Of course, there were also second-generation members who knew nothing, but Huang Lin would not arrange for such people to enter the company; that would only harm them.

Cheng Mei took a deep breath and said heavily, "Alright, I will go and make the arrangements tomorrow. If they are still unwilling to compromise, then you should call a board meeting and have them all pushed out."

Cheng Mei had also steeled her heart; this was the best result.

Huang Lin and his wife settled this matter. They both knew that this was actually a good thing. Zhang Ran had set the development system for smart homes, and the future development of Huali Electric would certainly be better.

But it was just that the management here didn't understand this, and even if they did, they were unwilling to relinquish power.

Compared to earning a few million more each year, they would rather forgo that money to keep control of the company's authority.
